    Around 1981 when I was in high school, Richard Harris was in a tour of Camelot. I saw it at The Muny in St Louis. If you’re not familiar with The Muny, it is a very large outdoor theater and if you’ve never been to St Louis in the summer, it’s like tropical rainforest hot. In one scene, Harris as Arthur and the actor playing Pellinore are in very warm fur coats. The sweat is dripping down their faces. The other actor wipes the sweat off his face and accidentally hits Richard Harris in the eye with sweat. That began a several minute long sweat fight between the two on stage. One of my favorite theater memories.

      @philiphalpenny9761 5 лет назад +22

      Fascinating to hear Harris's Assessment of Cagney's "style of acting". Cagney, first & foremost, was a dancer & so, consequently, his speech patterns & physical gestures were always immaculately choreographed, non- naturalistically. Orson Welles put it thusly-" always unreal, yet always true". Most of the great screen actors like Mitchum, Duvall, Tracy are expressively low-key, which i admire, but Cagney has always been my favourite as he had that sheer physical joy of performance which was so infectious. His millions of imitators, if anything, did him a disservice because they tended to resort to gimmicky caricature, missing Cagney's balanced, lyrical truth.

    • @philiphalpenny9761
      @philiphalpenny9761 5 лет назад +19

      Yes, Cagney was known as "one take Cagney" but Harris worked with him very late on, 1959. Problems with memory, on the set of One, Two, Three, in 1960, seemed to have been the chief reason the great star retired.

Cagney made One, Two,Three the following year with Billy Wilder & on that film Cagney's memory was less sharp as it once was so, i think that made him retire. Glad he made that Wilder film, though it hastened his retirement ,as it was his best role for years. Have you seen that one?
